Abstract
Visuomotor function impairment is commonly observed in individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). In this case report, a 13-year-old child diagnosed with NF1 and impaired visuomotor skills participated in an 8-week tablet computer-based cognitive training for visuomotor function. The Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration, 6th Edition (VMI-6) and the Korean Smartphone Addiction Proneness Scale for Youth were administered before and after the intervention to assess effectiveness. The Beery-Buktenica VMI-6 raw score improved from 17 to 24, and the Korean Smartphone Addiction Proneness Scale for Youth score changed from 45 to 42. These results demonstrate the potential of tablet computer-based cognitive training as a therapeutic intervention to enhance visuomotor function in children with impaired visuomotor skills, without the influence of digital media addiction.
期刊介绍：
Applied Neuropsychology: Child publishes clinical neuropsychological articles concerning assessment, brain functioning and neuroimaging, neuropsychological treatment, and rehabilitation in children. Full-length articles and brief communications are included. Case studies of child patients carefully assessing the nature, course, or treatment of clinical neuropsychological dysfunctions in the context of scientific literature, are suitable. Review manuscripts addressing critical issues are encouraged. Preference is given to papers of clinical relevance to others in the field. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor-in-Chief, and, if found suitable for further considerations are peer reviewed by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single-blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
